$74,840 has been awarded
lo Belhel by Ihe Northwest
Area Foundation for faculty
workshops in computer literacy to be conducted during
August of 1985 and August of
1986.
The foundation, which provides funds for community
and educational development,
chose Bethel and approximately six other schools in
the Northern tier area (the
seven states from Minnesota
lo Washington along the Canadian border) for awards lo
fund various program proposals.
In order to attain these
awards, colleges had to go
through a two round applicalion process. In Ihe firsl round
Dean Ebner, Bill Doyle, and
their associates sent a proposed plan lo combat computer illiteracy to the foundation. In preparation for (he

Richard Breslin, dean of Iona
College and Marty Ringle, director of computers al Vassar
College, came to Bethel lo revise the proposal.
Ringle and Breslin felt that
Bethel's proposal should focus
on leaching ihe teachers to
rather than having students
take computers as a required
course. The proposal also includes the purchase of additional computers that will be
placed in all four academic
buildings and possibly in the
new dorm.
The revised proposal was
sent to the Foundation along
with those of approximately
90 other private and public
schools. Aboul seven schools
were then awarded funds to
carry out their proposals.
The workshops, headed by
Bill Doyle, will be attended by
about 40 faculty members,
with at least three from each
academic division and department. The faculty will be
taught the basic skills for using computers and one application to the classroom situation. The faculty member will
then be expected to use that
application with students during the coming semesters.
According to Dean Ebner
the plan is designed to give all
students a working knowledge
of computers. Said Ebner, "We
don't want to continue graduating Bethel students without giving them some basic
application of computers in
their own fields."
Immunizations needed to prevent Red Measles
by Chris Henning
Recent outbreaks of Red
Measles al Principia College
and Boslon University have
played a role in ihe deaths of
two sludenls and Ihe illness
of over 120 others. The combination of this highly contagious virus and the potential
for contraction of the disease
by students during spring
break has caused concern
among campus officials. College studenis are highly susceptible and vulnerable to Red
Measles if they have not been
properly immunized.
Red Measles are a cause of
great concern in people older
than age 20 because cases
are more severe in adults lhan

in children. Complications are
more easily contracted by
adults which may result in
pneumonia, ear infections, and
encephalitus,.a brain inflam-

mation that can cause coma
and death.
Sludents who have not been
properly immunized could
possibly bring the virus to
Bethel when they relurn from
their spring break vacations
if they are in any contact with
a person who has the disease.
Two major complications
should be noted by students.
Often times symptoms do not
appear in a person until that
person has had the virus for
about two weeks. This problem greatly multiplies the
chances for contact and transmission of the virus to those
who have not been immunized. Also, many of the students who have not been immunized assume that they
actually have been immunized. This false sense of
security could cause a student some big problems that

Notes
South African Ties Unravel
Proposed state legislation
would halt U. of California research and fellowship programs,
and student and professor exchanges with South African universities.
Sponsoring lawmakers hope to
pass binding legislation, but assemblyman Mike Harris notes
the university regents' autonomous status could mandate only
a non-hinding rule.
Meanwhile, the Harvard Law
Review announced plans to sell
nearly S113.000 in investments
in American companies doing
business in South Africa.
The move reverses an earlier
Law Review board decision not
to divest.
Libraries Face Major Money
Problems But Fewer Federal
Dollars
While college and university
library expenditures mushroomed 30.4 percent from 1978-
79 to 1981-82. federal funding
dropped 23.3 percent, from $25
million lo S"19 million, Ihe National CenterforEducation Statistics
reports.
Since 1982, libraries have lost
even more federal revenue. Last
year, Congress cancelled Si.9 million in library funds because Ihe
awards were not need-based.
U Cal-Santa Barbara Prof Defends Heckling Charge
"There is a long and splendid
tradition of heckling in Anglo-
American politics," stated economics prof Robert Crouch, refuting student claims he disrupted a
former CIA official's lecture.
Five student groups, all lecture
sponsors, complained Crouch intentionally disrupted the speech.
